| Herb Ngatai | Everything |
In Maori Mythology Taiwhetuki is the house in the underworld where Whiro, the lord of Death and Evil resides to claim the dead who have passed on and are buried.
It is said that Whiro feasts on the buried to give him power to which he will return to the world of the living and devour all life itself.
In order to quell his hunger one must be cremated.
